Erasmus Ahandbook On Good Manners For Children
A HANDBOOK ON GOOD MANNERS FOR CHILDREN is considered to be the first treatise in Western Europe on the moral and practical education of children. It was written by Erasmus of Rotterdam who determined that manners are best instilled at an early age. It was a massive bestseller - indeed the biggest-selling book of the 16th century - going into nineteen editions and being translated into eight languages within ten years of its publication. In it Erasmus concerns himself with matters such as how to dress, how to behave at table, how to converse with one's elders and contemporaries and much else.
